A Small Savannah Christmas

This year Matthew and I had a very small Christmas at our house, our first as a married couple! We decided not to do gifts for each other since we are about to buy ourselves a house :) I had a little Christmas spirit though and we still got a tree and decorated it. There are a few gifts under it, although most of them are for family members we haven't seen yet! Our cat Zia is quite fascinated by the tree and mostly tries to eat the branches, not the ornaments. She is still shut in our shop for most of the time (turned out she has no health problems, just behavioral ones) but she got to come in and snuggle with us on Christmas.

A cute, personalized ornament that my aunt gave us.

Zia's presents were the wrapping materials, what more could a cat want?

One of my favorite things about Christmas is Grandma Bertch's lemon meringue pies. Unfortunately, I had to make it myself this year...

















On a side note, our baby bunnies are growing very quickly. This batch is quite friendly because Matthew feeds them leaves from the yard daily. They sure love him!

















About a week ago, our other doe, Peaches, had her first litter of babies. I originally thought that there were six, but if you look closely she actually had seven! They are going to keep her busy!
